MediaWiki Extension CirrusSearch and Elasticsearch Setup

From WikiMLT

This is a short man­u­al how to set-up Elas­tic­search to be used with the MediaWiki's ex­ten­sion Cir­rusSearch which com­mu­ni­cate to the ser­vice by the ex­ten­sion Elas­ti­ca. You should choice an ap­pro­pri­ate Elas­tic­search ver­sion de­pend­ing on your Me­di­aWi­ki ver­sion. Cur­rent­ly I'm us­ing Me­di­aWi­ki 1.38 and it is rec­om­mend­ed to use Elas­tic­search 6.8.23+ with it. This ver­sion runs well over open­jdk-11 which is the de­fault Ja­va ver­sion on Ubun­tu Serv­er 22.04.

Elas­tic­search and the ex­ten­sion Elas­ti­ca are re­quired by some oth­er Me­di­aWi­ki ex­ten­sions as ex­ten­sion Trans­late where it is used as trans­la­tion mem­o­ry. It is al­so used by the NextCoud's ap­pli­ca­tion Full text search and more…

Ja­va and Javac

On Ubun­tu Serv­er the de­fault jdk and jre pack­ages can be in­stalled by the fol­low­ing com­mand.

sudo apt install -y apt-transport-https default-jdk default-jre

To check and switch the cur­rent ver­sion of Ja­va and Javac you can use the fol­low­ing com­mands.

sudo update-alternatives --config java
#Out­put
There are 2 choices for the alternative java (providing /usr/bin/java).

  Selection    Path                                            Priority   Status
------------------------------------------------------------
  0            /usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64/bin/java      1111      auto mode
* 1            /usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64/bin/java      1111      manual mode
  2            /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java   1081      manual mode

Press <enter> to keep the current choice[*], or type selection number: 1
sudo update-alternatives --config javac
#Out­put
There are 2 choices for the alternative javac (providing /usr/bin/javac).

  Selection    Path                                          Priority   Status

  2            /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/bin/javac    1081      manual mode

Press <enter> to keep the current choice[*], or type selection number: 1

If you are us­ing Elas­tic­search 5.x it re­quires openjdk‑8 which can be in­stalled by the fol­low­ing com­mands. Af­ter the in­stal­la­tion use the above com­mands to switch the ver­sion in use.

#De­tails
sudo apt install openjdk-8-jre-headless 
sudo apt install openjdk-8-jdk-headless

Af­ter switch­ing the ver­sion of Ja­va you need to restart the Elas­tic­search ser­vice if it is al­ready in­stalled.

sudo systemctl restart elasticsearch.service 
curl 'http://127.0.0.1:9200' # do a test

Elas­tic­search

In­stal­la­tion

There is a cou­ple of ways how to In­stalling Elas­tic­search – via Dock­er, via Apt repos­i­to­ry, via .deb or .rpm pack­ages, etc. I pre­fer to man­u­al­ly down­load and in­stall it via .deb pack­age. Is I said be­fore for Me­di­aWi­ki 1.38 we need ver­sion 6.8.23+.

cd ~/Downloads
wget https://artifacts.elastic.co/downloads/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-6.8.23.deb
sudo apt install ./elasticsearch-6.8.23.deb
#Ver­sions
wget https://artifacts.elastic.co/downloads/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-5.6.16.deb
wget https://artifacts.elastic.co/downloads/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-6.5.4.deb
wget https://artifacts.elastic.co/downloads/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-7.0.1-amd64.deb

Af­ter in­stalling the pack­age the Elas­tic­search ser­vice must be en­abled and start­ed.

sudo systemctl enable --now elasticsearch.service   # enable and start the service
systemctl status elasticsearch.service              # check the status of the service
systemctl cat elasticsearch.service                 # check the current service's configuration

Check

You can check does the ser­vice work prop­er­ly by the fol­low­ing ap­proach.

curl 'http://127.0.0.1:9200'
#Out­put
{
  "name" : "W2uxKNc",
  "cluster_name" : "elasticsearch",

  },

}

More de­tailed in­for­ma­tion can be ob­tained by the next com­mand.

Tweaks

Elas­tic­search could use huge amount of RAM. But, I've test­ed it for thin in­stances it work even with on­ly 128m. The main con­fig­u­ra­tion file is /etc/elasticsearch/jvm.options and you can tweak the amount of Ram in use my tweak­ing the rel­e­vant lines as fol­low. Note Xms and Xmx val­ues must be equal.

sudo nano /etc/elasticsearch/jvm.options
# Xms represents the initial size of total heap space
# Xmx represents the maximum size of total heap space

#-Xms512m
#-Xmx512m
-Xms4g
-Xmx4g

Add restart al­ways di­rec­tive to the Elasticsearch's sys­temd unit.

sudo systemctl edit elasticsearch.service
[Service]
# SZS/MLT Tweak
Restart=always
RestartSec=3

To ap­ply the changes use the fol­low­ing com­mands.

sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl restart elasticsearch.service
systemctl status elasticsearch.service
systemctl cat elasticsearch.service
